Review of the Nationwide, FlexPlus:

Easy online banking and very simple to switch funds...

5
Easy online banking and very simple to switch funds to get better savings rates. The annual bonus is a great touch that other banks do not offer. Reviewed on: 23rd May 2024

Never claimed, but customer service dodgy.

2
I've never needed to claim, so cannot comment on that aspect of their service, but dealing with their customer service regarding medical screening can be very difficult. The adviser I encountered was unclear, gave me inaccurat information, coughed into the phone while speaking to me and left me thinking I had no trust in this organisation to deliver a good service. I'll price up alternative cover. Reviewed on: 14th June 2023

Best current account for my needs, with the best building society!

5
FlexPlus as an account is excellent - I really feel it's good value for money, as the package it offers has saved me so much money on phones when they've broken, as well as helping with car breakdowns and travel issues! Over the last few decades I have been delighted with how the Building Society operates, including giving members a say at AGMs. The Fairer Share pay award is an excellent example of how they're looking out for their members.

One of the few remaining mutuals

An excellent current account to have, easy to use from banking app and helpers on hand either on line or on the end of a phone. Plus, Nationwide is paying all its lasting customers £100 each! Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

Nationwide is a good bank account, with good rates Reviewed on: 30th May 2023

Hospital stay necessary during trip

5
After nine days away, I became ill suddenly and unexpectedly with pneumonia. So unwell with breathing problems I thought I would die. The Vithas hospital staff on the Costa del Sol were brilliant. I was in hospital for 18 days and the Nationwide Insurance team gave me so much help, I cannot fault them. They kept me informed about my treatment via their UK doctors by email and offered to contact family. Told me not to worry about missing a flight they would arrange my journey back to UK. After I was discharged from hospital Nationwide put me in a hotel arranged a flight and transport to the airport. My grateful thanks to all the team. xx Reviewed on: 16th May 2023

Bad service

Was previously with Lloyds, with a value account with breakdown etc and they wanted 28 pound for the privilege, looked online and switched to nationwide , they did all the work for me and I'm getting all the same benefits for 28 pound!! Reviewed on: 11th April 2023

Useful insurance products - if needed

Account and app works smoothly. £13 a month pays for breakdown (Europe) and family travel insurance. Have claimed (smoothly) on the breakdown service at home & abroad. Very useful. Reviewed on: 11th April 2023
